Chapter 2

The two Kai's

The next day

The Ed's had slept over at Edd's place while studying the dragon ball. It had taking into the late hours when the need to sleep hit them. Edd had given his friends spare sleeping bags to spend the night. Edd was, of course, the first to wake up and had gone down to make breakfast. He had slept in his clothes like the others but changed into new clothes anyway.

A few minutes later Ed and Eddy came down.

"Well, that was wild night wasn't it?" Edd asked with enthusiasm that only he could mange.

"Yeah, sure it was." Eddy replied with a little less enthusiasm.

"Chunky Puffs, please!" Ed yelled.

"Well, we don't have "Chunky Puffs" but we do have something better."

The Ed's jumped at the sudden new voice. They turned and saw the Kai's.

"Whoa, who or what are you?" asked Eddy.

"We'll explain everything later. For now come with us."

Normally the Ed's would run away screaming at the top of their lungs but for some reason, they were in some sort of trance. KabitoKai teleported them to Supreme Kai's Planet.

Later at said planet.

"And so that's what's happing to the Earth."

The Ed's were in shock. No, more than shocked, their minds were blown. The Elder Kai had just told them that the Kanker's were transformed into powerful, evil androids. The fact that they were scary as normal, well as a Kanker could get, and now they were androids.

"And you three are our only hope to defeating them."

"Mister KabitoKai, with all due respect, how are WE going to defeat them? Even when they were human we still couldn't beat them!"

"Yeah, and they have cooties too!"

"There's absolutely no way that we're going back there to face them either!"

"Uhh please you have to!"

"If they don't want to fight, then let them."

"E-elder Kai!"

"If they want to walk out on the chance of a lifetime."

That caught the Ed's attention.

"Wait, what do you mean?" Eddy asked.

"If you three agree to fight the Kanker sisters, the Earth will be grateful and treat like heroes."

The Ed's, or at least Edd and Eddy, ponder over this. All they ever wanted was to be accepted in society.

They were still skeptical though. Elder Kai seemed to have read their minds as he said something that defiantly got their attention.

"And you also get tons of respect."

That was enough for the Ed's.

"Alright, where do we start?" asked Eddy.

"Hold on a minute!" interpreted Edd.

"What now?" asked an irritated Eddy.

"What about the people who lost their lives!"

"Oh, don't worry about it. We got it covered." KabitoKai said as he took out the Dragon ball from his bag.

"Hey it's the ball!" Eddy exclaimed.

"How did you obtain it?"

"I gave it to them." Ed explained.

"WHAT!" Edd and Eddy angrily asked.

"I gave it to them so they would spare us from being dissected by their master surgeon."

His two friends only stared at him.

"Hard to believe that he can dress himself, isn't it Double D."

"Well yes, now, how are you exactly are you going to revive all those people?"

"Well to put it simply, there are seven of these dragon balls and when you get all of them together, they summon Shenron, and you'll be able to get a wish granted."

"A wish? That's absurd! Wishes are mere figments of one's imagination. I refuse to believe such nonsense."

The two Kai's only replied with silence until Elder Kai spoke up.

"So you have no problem with us Kai's and people turning into androids, but you don't believe in something simple like a wish?"

"Could we move it along? We got a deadline to meet!" Shouted Eddy impatiently.

"Fine, come along with us." Motioned Elder Kai.

"Come on guys!"

Eddy then grabbed Edd and Ed by their collars and dragged them along.

"Oh my!"

"End of scene one and cut to scene two"

Later

The Ed's stood in the same spot for well over an hour. They had not much of a choice as the Elder Kai said that he wouldn't take back home if didn't agree.

"Tell me again, why you are walking around us in a circle?" asked Edd a bit agitated.

"Well to release you're lamented powers, of course." answered the Elder Kai.

"Lamonted powers?" asked Ed.

"What the heck's that means?" Eddy asked.

"He means that he's going to increase your hidden power." explained KabitoKai.

"Hidden power?" All Ed's asked.

"Yes, you are all descended of the Saiyans, a powerful warrior alien race."

The Ed's were dumbstruck at the sudden insight of their ancestry.

"Yeah right!" Eddy breaking the silence laughing. "You know, I can believe Ed being from another planet, and maybe even myself, what with these good looks, but Sockhead? Give me a break! He can't even make a fist!"

Edd glared daggers at Eddy, his anger slowly rising.

"Let me explain, both Ed and Double D. are decedents of Goku, the strongest saiyan warrior."

Eddy quite laughing and thought about what KabitoKai said.

"Wait, if their decedents of this Goku guy, what about me?"

"Well, their more descendents of his son's, Goten and Gohan, respectively." KabitoKai said.

"Oh, and you're the decedent of Vegeta, Prince of the Saiyans, if that will shut you up." Elder Kai explained, irritated by the Ed's talking.

"The Prince? Ya here that boys, I'm from royalty." Eddy said the cockiness in his voice hard to miss.

'Oh boy, as if his ego wasn't huge already.' Edd thought.

"Wait just a minute!" Ed suddenly spoke, as he was too busy think of the all things he could do with his new powers.

"Yes, what is it?" KabitoKai asked.

"How do you know we are offspring's from these saiyan warriors?"

Edd and Eddy were surprised at the sudden moment of intelligence.

"That quite simple, see, you Ed, are like Goten, who likes to eat and have fun, but will protect his friends at moment's notice. You Double D. are like Gohan because even though he has saiyan blood in him, he doesn't like fight and he's also very studious. And you Eddy are like-"was all KabitoKai said until he got caught off by Elder Kai.

"You're like Vegeta because you're both short, both in height and temper, you have huge egos and pride, and you're hair stands straight up. Well, yours is a bit limp." Elder Kai finished.

"Well actually, Eddy has lots of hair gel at home, so that explains the hair." Edd intervened.

"Actually, I use the hair gel to keep my hair this way." Eddy reluctantly corrected.

"Well if we're all done blabbing, I'd like to finish with my dance!" Elder Kai said.

"Um, how long is this going to take?" Ed asked.

"Oh, about another ten hours then after that a seven hour meditation."

The Ed's had on a look of horror and dismay at the fact that they had to stand for another ten hour and sit around for seven hours.

Seventeen hours later

"Okay, we're finished!" Elder Kai said.

"Finally, my butt's numb from all that sitting around."

"My butt's got a-"Ed said before he was caught off.

"Please don't finish that sentence Ed." Edd pleaded.

"Alright, why don't power up, let me see what you got." Elder Kai said.

"Power up? How?" Edd asked.

"I'll show you." KabitoKai explained.

He stood in front of the Ed's and put his arms to the side and hunched a bit. He then started to scream and the ground stated to shake. As his scream got louder and louder, the ground shook harder. He then stopped, the ground ceased to move.

"That how you power up." KabitoKai said with bit of a smirk.

The Ed's were amazed at the demonstration.

"Aright, we'll do it" Ed said, being the first to get out of his shock.

"That was incredible." Eddy finally said.

Alright, now we move on to the training.

After the Ed's powered up, the received new clothes, the one's I explained in the previous chapter. The Kai's told them that they would go through three trials; they would face a powerful minion, a giant monster and finally a "boss". They were also told that they (the enemies) would be to their type. The Kai's then opened up three portals and directed each Ed to theirs, even though they had one year to finish, they would be gone one day from the Kai's point of view.

"Well, good luck fellows, I'll see all soon." Edd said as he jumped into his portal.

"See ya guy, have fun!" Ed waved good bye as he did the same.

"Later!" Eddy fallowed suit.

"And remember, you all got one year to complete you're missions!" KabitoKai shouted.

And so, as the Ed's each go face their missions, the Kai's could only hope they would be finish before the deadline. Meanwhile on earth, the Kanker's destructive rampage continues. The Ed's have only one year to get stronger to face the Kanker's. Will they be powerful enough to end the Kanker's reign of chaos or will they fail? Find out in the next chapter of Next Generation!
